If your blood glucose level is still less than 4mmol/L, repeat Step 2. If your blood glucose level is more than 4mmol/L, move to Step 5. 5.

Severe anaemia (haemoglobin <70g/L) without haematinic deficiency Severe neutropenia (neutrophils <0.5x109/L) Severe thrombocytopenia (platelets <20x109
If the measured concentration is <15mg/L, consider increasing the dose or reducing the dosage interval - see Vancomycin Policy.
18 hours post-dose <1 mg/L To interpret levels from between these times see graph (nomogram) in the tobramycin policy.
Reference range g/L
Reference ranges 0-15 umol/L Note: Undetectable homocysteine levels have been observed in patients with molybdenum cofactor deficiency or isolated sulphite
For example, if a “serum rhubarb” result of 64 µmol/L is reported by the laboratory, the result could actually lie somewhere between 61 and 67 µmol/L once
Reference ranges Male: Less than 11.8 ng/L Female: Less than 4.6 ng/L Further information To find out more about calcitonin access Lab Tests OnLine
For example, if a “Hb” result of 64 g/L is reported by the laboratory with a MU of 0.98, the result could actually lie somewhere between 63 and 65 g/L

Alert / Critical Values Low fibrinogen results of <1.5g/L should be telephoned.
